Detailed Description

A simple thrust actuator which applies a thrust force directly proportional to the input signal provided.

This is considered simple as most thrusters will produce a force which is also proportional to their velocity as they are generally constrained by their power output. Propeller thrusters also produce a reaction torque which is not included in this simplified model.
